Rising Star Ryan Bingham

Welcome to Young Hollywood.com.

Hi Young Hollywood, we are here with Ryan Bingham.

Now it's a name you might not know, but it's a name you're going to know soon, and it's a name you need to know.

My record came out yesterday, it's called Mescalito and we're having a CD release party here tonight and going to play some tunes and hopefully have a pretty good party.

So it's your first album and it just came out on a major record label.

What's that like?

We're on the the couch tour and now we got some wheels on the road and uh staying busy playing music.

When I die, I want you put my soul.

Let's talk a bit about how you came up, because it's an interesting story.

I mean, you've been at this for a long time and now, you know, you're on your way to the big time.

I've been on the road quite a while just tollbowing around, had an old suburban and just kind of roamed around the country playing tunes for anybody that would listen.

So were you actually living out of your car then?

Yeah, pretty much.

So how did you handle when you finally got the record deal?

Definitely felt like we earned it.

Lots of miles on the road and lots of good times, lots of bad times.

So what's the best moment then, you think?

Probably tonight's one of one of the best moments so far.

Let's talk about your voice a little bit, because it's really unique.

What is it that makes it makes it so unique?

Man, this may be overtime, too many miles on the road, too many late nights at the bar, I guess.

Now, did you know one of the first shows you had, Colin Farrell came to watch you play?

He's pretty cool dude, man, he come out to a couple of our shows and uh hung out with him.

He's a super nice guy.

I've read some pretty crazy things.

Someone said he's going to be a superstar.

They never heard anybody like you.

They're all fans.

It's insane.

How did you get all these crazy fans to find out about you?

I have no idea.

We showed up and everybody else showed up at the same time, I guess.

What what's your ultimate goal?

What do you want to be let's say, a year from now and and five years from now?

My ultimate goal if I just to be doing what I'm doing right now.

And I with some good friends, good people around me, we got some good music.

And I go home at the end of the night and have some, you know, warm plate, then you can't really ask for much more than that.
